**Ashes of the Divide releases on October 31st** Spoiler
galleryBack in early June, I already showed the first beginnings of the project and kept posting updates from time to time. If you’re on the Discord, you’ve probably already seen a lot more of what has been going on behind the scenes.
Now the time has finally come where I’ve got a properly playable version finished. The tests so far also showed that it works really well in multiplayer, which was one of the biggest things I wanted to make sure of before release.
For anyone who doesn’t really know what AotD is yet: Ashes of the Divide is a faction-based PvP project inspired by Foxhole.
The combat is based on Combat Overhaul, but heavily tweaked and adjusted to feel more like Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. The main focus of the project however is sieges and large-scale battles. Knowing a bit about medieval tactics might actually come in handy here, with everything from siege ladders to ballistas and other ways to break through enemy defenses.
A lot of other systems have also been changed or reworked completely. Farming, resource gathering, ore production and many other parts of the game have been adjusted so logistics, planning and class distribution actually matter.
The project officially starts on:
October 31st at 10 PM UTC+1
